People with multiple credentials after their name signal to employers that they are good at getting titles. Most employers require you to be good at something else besides collecting titles.
Multiple certifications may also signal a difficulty achieving recognition and career advancement on the basis of on-the-job learning and performance.
Avoid a stamp collecting attitude towards titles, focus on the most pertinent, tough and prestigious one for the career path you are choosing. The rest you will learn on the way...
They are different certifications, the CFA is oriented in forming portfolio managers, and FRM in forming risk managers.
Having both will improve your job prospects and you also will learn more.
So, if you have some free time, go for it.
Depends on few things.
If one is in Risk Management area, FRM in addition to CFA is great relevant supplementary degree to have. At many times FRM alone will do the job but here it is assumed one is already CFA charterholder.
If one is not in Risk Management area, in my view, FRM is good to have but not necessary as it may not count much in your career.
You would have better understanding of Financial Analysis and Risks.
If you are in senior management guiding people in both financial analysis and risk management domains, you would be able to assess the quality of works in both the departments. The benefits are expected to accrue only in senior management roles if one possess both CFA and FRM.
Financial Analyst is always with empowered with risk assessment skills. I sincerely believe CFA covers more ground than FRM in Finance and Economics, but FRM is a mile deep when it comes to assessing risks. FRM employs mathematics as a tool to forecast potential risks.
CFA is a degree that will help you get exposure to Markets. Landing jobs with the notation 'Analyst' and above like 'Fund Manager'.
FRM is a degree pursued by market laws' compliance experts. Practical experience is recommended before pursuing FRM as it's very confusing if you're not already familiar with the compliance laws.
